INTRODUCTION: Oesophageal atresia, duodenal atresia, and anorectal malformations are rare. This report describes a case of an infant with these three conditions treated using a multi-stage surgical procedure.
PRESENTATION OF CASE: A male infant was delivered via caesarean section at 34 weeks and 4 days of gestation, weighing 1709 g. Radiography at birth showed a coil-up of the gastrointestinal tube in the oesophagus, a double bubble sign; the patient was subsequently diagnosed with gross type C oesophageal atresia with duodenal atresia. A gastrostomy was performed at day 0. Oesophago-oesophageal anastomosis was performed after tracheoesophageal fistula and blind-end dissection. A duodeno-duodenal diamond-shaped anastomosis was performed, and a tube enterostomy was created from the gastric area near gastrostomy as a trans-anastomotic feeding tube. A colostomy was performed in the descending colon owing to a non-rotation-type anomaly of intestinal malrotation. After other multi-stage surgeries and weight gain, posterior sagittal anorectoplasty was performed at age 1 year 2 months.
DISCUSSION: Triple atresia (TA), characterized by triumvirate oesophageal atresia, duodenal atresia, and anorectal malformations, remains a clinical puzzle. Notably, standardized therapeutic guidelines for managing TA are lacking. The complexity of this constellation of anomalies necessitates astute diagnostic acumen and strategic treatment planning.
CONCLUSION: Our patient showed a favourable clinical course with an accurate and timely diagnosis, serving as an experience for an innovative multi-stage therapeutic strategy. Our case showed the appropriate challenges of TA while illuminating the potential for successful outcomes through meticulous clinical management.
